i'm finally boosted!
 

its been a long journey to the darkside. I have a custom kit i peiced together in the last year and i finally finished installing it lastnight, it was soo ------- cold out in the garage i thought i had hypothermia and had to wait till this morning to test drive it. It took forever but i'm glad i waited and saved up for all the best parts i could afford.

My custom kit includes:
ShitBird short tubular manifold
T3 48/60 60 trim (down2turbo)
charge pipes and donpipe welded by me(Harbor Frieght on sale chop saw and flux core welder, holly ------- splatter!)
Johnnyrace car intercooler 6"
Tial 38mm wastegate (.4bar spring)
DSM BOV *from nonvtec*
Uberdata 1.7
dsm 450s
PLX 300

My car:
del sol
mini me (sohc zc/z6 head)

i tuned it this morning using the wastegate spring(6psi). It rips pretty hard, but i'm ready for more boost now. The open downpipe is ------- loud but the turbo spool sounds awsome. i seem to get full spool by 3300rpm.

well i'm in a hurry to go celebrate tonight so i'll add pictures as i get to them. i just wanted to thank all the HMT peeps who inspired this build up.

3" downpipe, it took a long ass time to mock this bitch perfect... it turned out great, look at the clearance.

a shot of the gauges & PLX wideband because i'm a "ricer"

extended my open pipe 2 more feet, its actually makes the temporary open pipe tuning more bearable untill spring and i put on a full exhaust.

Re:i'm finally boosted!

;)

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

setup looks good and you need better pics :P

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

congrats. looks like a solid setup.

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

man, people dont post pics and you bitch....people post pics and you bitch for more or better.

you're like women.

ps - nice setup.

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

dammit d16forlife im tired of seeing that posted all the time by you, your worthless without pics you ------- -------.

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

pics might be shitty but they are pics... so come on, no complaints you guys. Nice setup, boost is addicting isnt it?

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

Sheesh... I'll let Raf stick up for himself but alot of us do it. maybe not as repetedly as D16, but it's become almost a trademark ;) You post up boasting about something without pictures, here comes the man Raf to lay down the hammer. :)

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

we need better pics

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

glad it's boosted.post good pics these suck :P

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

I may have only posted one picture in my turbo thread, but that one picture probably had more pixels than all of yours. let's see some high quality ----.

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

What psi are you runnin it at. And hurry up and get more pics and a dyno sheet.

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

---- you you ------- n00b!If it bother you that much drink some ------- antifreeze.That will solve your problem you ------- faget!

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

why is it that the only clear picture you have of is your gauges. damn ricer :P

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

looks good man!! nice setup

Re:i'm finally boosted!
 

The reason that that particular picture is more clear is probably because i used a different camera. If the new breed of ricers include fabricating 80% of their own custom turbo kit then... i guess i'm a flaming ricer. :P

i was at the shop ------- around today, ground down the welds and painted my charge pipes, trimmed some more bumper off for better fitment of intercooler and some other random ----.

i was supposed to take the digi cam but forgot... i'll take pics tommorrow.

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***
 

new quality pics for the whiny bitches... enjoy!

the car rips @ 6psi but i'm ready for 10lbs... i'm making a HM boost controller today, so i'll keep you posted.

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***

That manifold is "sexsay"! Nice clean setup and very nicely put together.

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***
 

very nice manifold :o

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***
 

Thanks for the positive comments.

i'm currently using a metal screen mesh b/c i can't find a filter that will fit in that tight little space, to top it off its even harder to find a filter that is 2.5" at the neck. i'll probably have to get a 90 bend or something. This car is supposed to be parked for winter but in washington this year we haven't really seen any snow yet... ive been driving around tuning with the open pipe and it is ------- LOUD!!! it actually runbles the back of my seat so it feels like your getting a massage while driving... ive had to wear ear plugs while tuning its soo lound.

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***
 

dude, thats plenty of room for a filter,

Re:i'm finally boosted!***new quality pics***
 

i have less room than u and i got a filter on there, it was a pain to do but it will go,

Re:i'm finally boosted!***LOWBUCK MBC INSTALL TECH***
